Not much.
The highly anticipated shared stage between pop divas Lee Hyori and Uhm Jung-hwa fell short of my low expectations at the Mnet 20’s Choice Awards on August 23rd 2008. Although I was hoping for something titillating (i.e. a shared kiss, perhaps?) between the two, the pop divas confirmed that they could easily be interchangeable. Wearing the exact same outfit, Lee Hyori performed Uhm Jung-hwa’s hit, “D.I.S.C.O” and the only way I could tell it was Hyori was because of her sexy smile and short legs. Otherwise, she could be Uhm Jung-hwa herself. On the other hand, Uhm Jung-hwa’s version of her counterpart was a slightly less fashionable, slightly skankier take on Hyorish’s fashion. Wearing white cropped pants mismatched with a peach high-cut bathing suit, Uhm Jung-hwa did better with the booty shaking that was required for Lee Hyori’s hit, “U Go Girl.” The reason being-Uhm Jung-hwa has the booty.
Check out Lee Hyori and Uhm Jung-hwa’s shared stage or at Daum here.






I think they did an exceptional job…
That was the best performance of the night. They’re both okay at singing live though. Not too great. Lee Hyori looked funny with the UJH clothes XD I didn’t think UJH could pull off something that sexy but she actually has a really nice body. She looks human and not anorexic.
they did good!
i like this performance!
That was actually pretty good, atleast they’re not lip-syncing, and you can actually tell there singing. Uhm Jung-hwa has a nice body too.
…wow im the only one that didnt like the performance
well i was fine with disco and dj. hyori did a great job in dj but uhm jung hwa should stick to her own songs. i reallly didnt like her when she was singing u go girl
this was srsly cute! XD;;
this was awesome!!
though, you could tell uhmjunghwa is way too old to keep up since she was full puffing and outta breath
Uhm Jung-hwa is awesome!!!
No more to said.
uhm looks lovelier than hyori. hyori cant beat uhm, hyori has very short legs emphasized by those leg wraps. uhm looks elegant, hyori looks scruffy.
that second to the last picture.. she has no butt.. lee hyori rite? ><
the first pic shows how short hyori’s short legs is. is hyori an crapped alien thrown on earth? must be an andre’s creation, sort of. unfortunately, she hasn’t given justice to uhm jung hwa’s sophisticated fashion. crap crap.
Well, I would say, as a 39 year old diva, UJM still has what it takes to be a good singer, and as for Hyori, she’s a modern diva, you know what I mean…soo, for that night, I think they’re pretty good with exchanging Songs…And the performance is not bad compare to ’some’ groups that flop when it comes to singing each other’s songs….
Totally the best performance of the night ^^
LoVed IT
UjH rulllzzz
ummm. a shared kiss. popseoul, you are off your rocker… have you forgotten, thi IS korean tv you know
Their performance is okay…entertaining!
I must say, Uhm Jung Hwa looked great performing as Hyori!!! Hyori also don’t look too bad with dark shorter hair…
their perf. was the best
UJH and hyori did their best
they are good friends
so you could see how happy they were perf. together
their perf was just okay
i thought it would be better.
UJH looks amazing for her age!
cool~
i thought hyori looked bad in ujh’s disco outfit. she’s too bony and she couldn’t even dance right.
I don’t why popseoul is expecting a live lesbian kiss on Korean TV. They must forget where they are on a daily basis.
I actually thought they had the best performance of the night!
just love those comments…we enjoyed it and nothing more.
HAHAHA romela, you are right! thumbs up for them! yeah! but, i like hyori voice more than uhm jung hwa. but she still sounds okay.. although not my favourite. hahazz..
uhm jung hwa’s costumes are always like a fashion disaster! nggilani pol cak.. jamb00
After this performamce, I have just realised Uhm Jung Hwa cannot dance or sing. Her dance was so half-hearted and apathetic. I have no idea how she is the top pop diva. Why am I the only person who can see this? Especially when dancing U-Go Girl, she cannot compare to Hyori. All the talk about Uhm Jung Hwa being old seems to be true.
Were you guys watching the same perfs as I was? Uhm Jung Hwa is starting to show she’s getting a little too old to keep up. She kept huffing and puffing during U-Go-Girl. She couldn’t keep up with the dancing and singing.
i thought Hyori did an amazing job with D.I.S.C.O.! she actually made the outfit look hot! but i didnt like uhm jung hwa’s version of u-go-girl so much because it just didnt ’suit’ her…but still one possibly the best act of the night /XD
I loved this and in the last one lookin at eachother like they really enjoyed it. Felt like I waswatching a climax of some typical success drama hehe
I’m happy they didn’t
1) People will say they’re copying
2) Is that like accepted in s.Korean culture to do that in a performance?
3) Ew
it’s called personality and better music
that was @ktie
DO SOME RESEARCH.
as much as hyori brings the sex appeal , could easily scan her fats with that skimpy star wars outfit. haha sexy diva is fat. stare at the second photo. she got an extra back.
didnt matter really right? even if shes fat shes still hot. gotta love her too because she loves cat and had two of the great persian like i do. lol why did i mention that? whatever she, and hwang bo is lovable
OH GOSH! WHY EVERYTIME I LOOK AT THIS GORGEOUS GIRLS MY MIND IS ALWAYS SCREAMING ‘PLASTIC! SILICON! ETC?’ (WELL MAYBE BECAUSE ITS TRUE) BUT OKAY, THEY DO HAVE THE TALENT.
Loved this speical stage! So much better than the other ones and Hyori totally rocked!!!!
Just looking at the fotos, those girls are interchangeable in appearance. I didn’t realize they switched…maybe their make-up artist was just that good. Their voices are definitely different though. But both women are still hot, energetic and talented (in their own ways) even though they’re past 25. I don’t think they are old, but since everyone else makes big deal about their age..just thought it was awesome that they can still perform like the younger gals.
i think hyori did a btr job on D.I.S.C.O then junghwa did
and junghwa didn`t do so well on u-go-girl
she couldn`t really keep up
omg comparing them side by side
HYORI IS SUCH A BETTER SINGER THAN UHM JUNG HWA! wthekc ujh was flat. hyori def. has better stage presence too
^ yeah, right. that was just one out of hundreds of performances.
me like it!!!
i love hyori’s hoodie with the year and tail~ lol
ear~
Hyori unnie definitely looked cute in that outfit, and I liked her verion of D.I.S.C.O. She seemed happy and energetic. I thought she did great compared to UJH.
i agree with live4music..when i 1st saw the videon to the site of something.
and i luve UJW having the short hair than the long one…coz she lokked old…with the long one.
RIDICULE !!! Aucune voix, aucun peps ! Elles ne savent ni danser ni chanter ! ce ne sont ques des bimbos sans talent du préfabriqué ! c’est vraiment pitoyable même à la star académie en france on à de meilleures performances ! c’est dire le niveau ! je suis déçue de voir que les nouvelles stars en corée c’est ça ! beaucoup de vulgarité et de chirurgie esthétique (sans que ce soit esthétique d’ailleurs) J’ai vu des amateurs en concert à dondaemun stadium qui étaient un milliard de fois plus talentueux !
wow, I saw bimbos sans talent. not good.
uhm is better at singing
omg stop comparing lee hyori with so in young and Uhm Jung hwa. lee hyori’s wayyy better.
uhm jung hwa > seo in young >>>>>> hyori sorry!
ujh looks like she is wearing pieces of cloth when it is actually a body suit. talk about skimpy but clothed. cool.
